Subject: Animated image maps - finally!!!

Eolas Development Corporation introduces the web's FIRST animated image mapping tool! zMap CS!! (http://zmap.eolas.com)

As a web designer you've had an arsenal of tools that allowed your imagination to run the show - or that's always been the idea. There's always been a couple of big problems - static image maps and animated gifs that do nothing but look...well...interesting.

With zMap those problems are solved! Now you can take that animated gif or avi and make it an interactive piece of the web page design puzzle. Static navigation bars can now be replaced by 3-dimensional animated images! Make your clients' on-line catalogs MOVE! Take an .avi file and make it clickable! Map up to 16 million independent objects on a single image  so the lengthy and annoying process of mapping a complex 2-d image becomes easy, painless, and most important, FAST!! Even create hotspots WITHIN hotspots!

Imagine:
· An AVI of a professional basketball player driving the lane for a slam-dunk. The end user clicks on the player to get his statistics for the game or the season, then clicks on  one of the other players and gets their stats, then clicks on the stadium crowd and gets a seating chart for the stadium or even an actual view from that seat. ALL WHILE THE VIDEO IS PLAYING!!

· An AVI of the swing dancers from a national clothing retailer commercial. The end user clicks on a pair of khaki's and is immediately taken to a product page or an order form, then clicks on a  dancer's face and gets a description of the dance steps involved.  ALL WHILE THE VIDEO IS PLAYING!!

· A highly detailed image of a truck engine. The end user clicks on a tiny part and is given the order number.  Even better, show an avi of the engine rotating, allowing the user to see and INTERACT with all the parts of the engine.

· A flow chart displaying the progress of a company's internal project…that actually FLOWS!!

Hey, it's your imagination. What would you do with such a tool?

In addition, this is a tool that has next to no learning curve (if you can trace an object you can use it), works with your server, creates content that works on any Java-enabled browser, works with any ODBC-compatible database including Access and Oracle, AND costs less than 80 dollars!

But listen these are just static words. If you're like most, you want to see the goods. Just head on over to the zMap site. Once you get to http://zmap.eolas.com, you'll see numerous examples of this technology in action and learn how you can start getting your own content moving!

We'll see you there!!

zMap - Get Moving!!
